  I have a cocker (Tessa) and I really believe if I had to train her at 12 years old - she'd learn even though she's trained to go in the yard......They're smart little dogs - I've taught her all sorts of tricks and she loves doing them...but I agree - Your friend may need to use 2 pads together - cockers grow to over 20 lbs
